Superchips Flashpaq 2815 On My 2500hd


Recommended Posts

I have a 02' Silverado 2500hd with a 6.0l and of course it drinks gas like i drink water (And thats alot of drinking) I'm getting somewhere around 11.5 mpg highway. And before i put the Spectre cold air intake and Tornado it was getting around 10-10.5mpg highway.

 

So i just bought a Superchips Flashpaq 2815 off craigslist for $240, And the guy just recently did all the updates and whatnot, So it also has the Mileage XS tune, Should i switch it to that to see the most mpg improvement? Or should i just put it on 87 octane tune? Or leave it on Performance tune with the 91 octane fuel?

 

And i would appreciate if someone has a nice setup that will also give me more mpg's. Should i put exhaust? If you got any ideas let me know.

 

 

 

 

Thanks in advance,

Agreed, loose the tornado... and install the mileage tune. I have a friend that got good results with it. Something else you could try is Synthetic trans fluid. I did in my last truck and it was worth a solid 1-2 mpg better. I used Royal purple and it worked awesome for me :( Better mileage wasn't the only benefit. The trans ran 15-20 degrees cooler too. I never saw it above 185 and that was while towing.

 

Also, what exhaust are you running?

Custom tunes run about 300-400. With those miles, have you done a tune up? Plugs,wires,etc?
